Imagine the current workflow of WooCommerce where the admin is the only one who can change the order status to completed. The customers don’t have the option to approve order/product delivery from their end. So, the admins can’t verify if the product has been received by the customer or not. Also when a customer will see the order marked
as Completed even though he/she has not received it, it will be a disaster for the trust of your BRAND. And this is where this plugin
comes into play.
At first, you will ship the product after an order has been placed. Then you will need to select the order status as
Delivered. When the admin marks it as delivered, the customer will see a button named “Mark as Received” in the actions section
on the My Accounts -> Orders page. Once the customer has received the product, he/she will just need to click on the "Mark as Received" button and the order status will be automatically marked as Completed upon the click.
